We advise every farmer to keep bees,
not only for the money it may bring,
but for the qualification of his family.
We advise it, as we do the growing of
an abundance of strawberries, grapes,
etc,-as one of the. ties to attach child
rem to the farm, by making it the best
place on earth. We also advise it for
it's influence upon the young, in teach
ing them to observe. Still, the main
reason for keeping bees is, the sweet
TOOTH if that be gratiied, all other
benefits will follow. The way to begin
Bookkeeping is to begin small. If one
proeures a single colony, in a modern,
movable eomb-hive, and by the aid of
one Of the standard works (such as
Quinby's), cares for that colony and its
increase during the season, he will have
a knowledge of Bookkeeping that will
enable him to manage many hives, and
which will enable him, if he should so
elect to keep bees for profit. One
piece of advice should be needed by all
beginners; Do not begin Bookkeeping
unless with the determination to give it
that thought and care which will make
it a success. Nothing can be more
improbable and d~emoralizing than a
neglected apiary. Begin. then, with a
single hive, and experienced bee-keep-
ers are agreed that this is the proper
month in which to begin.

sheep. Ia this enclosure feed all of the
corn-stalks. The following spring tax
the adjoining land for potatoes; pillow
we'll; then lay off three or four rows at
a time on the side furthest from the
cow-pen. Make the burrows deep; drop
the potatoes at good distances apart,
and fill the furrow entirely up with
coarse manur keeping OF in this way
until all are planted. The object in
planting only a few rows at a time is to
avoid running the manure wagon over
the burrows, as this would destroy
them. After the field is all planted,
rake with a hay or stalk-rake the stalks
from the cow-pen on the potato plot,
so that the covering will be a foot thick
after settling. This is all that is need
ed until harvest, when the stalks are
raked from the potatoes and thinly
spread over the wheat field, to be plow-
ed under. The potatoes can be gather
ed without digging. as they will either
be on the top of the ground or in the
loose manure. In the South, potatoes
raised in this way may be lett in the
ground all winter and gathered in per-
feet condition in the spring.
The conditions of success with this
method are, to use plenty Of manure
and to have the mulch at least a foot
thick. Nothing is SO good for a mulch
as corn-stalks, and in raising potatoes
in a garden, the stalks may be piled on
the edge of the patch in gathering, and
may bensed for several years.-Ameri-

House Plants in April.

Whether in the greenhouse or the
window-garden. plants that have done
their best all winter are now being
made ready for their season in the
open air. While they remain within,
The increasing heat requires that they
have greater care in ventilation and in
freeing them from insects. Plants that
ire taken out in. summer, If wanted to
bloom in pots next winter, should be
kept in the pots; if turned out in open
ground, they cannot be satisfactorily
potted again. 1t is much better to start
with new plants from cuttings. Such
plants may often be plunged in the
border, in the pots, with good results.
Pots that are set out should stand IN a
layer of coal-ashes to keep out worms.
Such plants should be set in par
Lial shade, but never under the drip
of trees. Roots of dahlias and cannas,
and bulbs of tuberoses and gladiolus, if
laid in boxes of soil, exposed to the sun
during the day and taken in at night,
may be a%ppreciably toward, and ready
to plant out. m

Rerter seeding Needed.

There is too much hap-hazard work
| connected with seeding to grass. There
should be more effort to permanency,
more painstaking in preparing the soil
and in putt ng in the seed. To secure
q good grass crop, this should be the
only crop expected from the land.
Glover and timothy will do we'll sown
in the early spring with wheat or rye,
but most other gases will not do well
with any grain crop, and should be put
in as early as possible in spring as an
entire crop. The growth of the finer
grasses is slow at first, as they come up
with only a tiny shoot, and the spread
of roots and foliage to the full extent
really takes two years. The seed is
more costly and a greater amount re-
quired, hence it cannot be done SO oft
en-, but if we'll done it pays best in the
end. Plenty of fine should be
prepared to be narrowed in with the
seed, and in its absence from zoo to
500 pounds of superphosphate, or other
reliable concentrated fertilizer, should
be spread over an acre. There is no
place where these kinds of manures
will pay better.
A good mixture of seed, sown broad.
cast both ways, two bushels of Orchard
grass, two of Rcd-top. and n bushel
of Meadow Fescue, to be covered with
a good brush harrow. The surface of
the ground should be made smooth,
free from Jumps and clods, and in a
light and friable condition. To get it
in this form, the harrow and roller
should be used freely. A field seeded
down in this way with plenty of seed
should yield a good return for years.
and will do so if it is not made bare in
autumn by the ~pasturing of cattle, and
in consequence destroyed by exposure
to severe winter weather. We should
farm more for permaneney in both
pastures and meadows, and to save cost
and to insure better yields.

Repairing GirdIed Trees.

Young fruit trees, especially
apple trees. girdled by mice
and rabbits are seldom so badly iniur-
ed as they appear to be. Unless the
inner bark is completely gone, they,
with proper treatment, will recover.
Make a mixture of stiff clay and cow
manure, beating well, to form a stiff
plaster, adding water if needed. A
thick, ample coating of this placed
we the wound, completely covering
it, and is wrapped around with old
bagging or other coarse fabric. The
chief object of this is to keep the whole
most while nature heals the wound.
In a dry time it is we'll to wet the
bandages, etc. AS the supply of sap
is largely diminished by the wound,
the head of the tree should be reduced
by cutting back the branches. If the
wound is very severe. it is sometimes
bridged over by the use of large cions,
one end inserted under the bark below
and the other end above the wcund.
Unless a tree is large and especially
valuable, it will rarely pay to be at this
trouble. Better replace the injured
tree by another of the same size and
AGE. ... -... .s..

zinc weed q the PralrIeg.

If we go out upon the prairies, where
the foot of a white man has never trod,
and little but the prairie grasses can be
seen, only an occasional weed or
flower is found. But when once this
virgin soil is broken up or disturbed
Dame Nature will here, as elsewhere,
strive to cover the nakedness of the
soil with rs dense a growth of weeds
as ever furnished employment to the
tiller of the soil. One popularity will
be noticed-the first and about the only
weed to appear the year after breaking
is the pig weed, and this seems to
spring up spontaneously wherever the
soil is disturbed. The next year comes
he IRE weed, tumble weed, aud a host
of Others. An examination of the seed
of the fire weed viii show that it is
especially formed for travelling, and
our prairie breezes furnish just the
right motive power. As to the tumble
weeds, any one who has spent an
autumn on the prairies can only won
der that there are not more Of them
growing. Looking out over the prai-
ries in the fall, on a windy day. thou
sands can be seen rolling and jumping

broken two or three inches deep, and
the sods are taken of, scarcely a pig
weed will be found on that ground for
several years, but the other weeds will
take possess on first. The seeds of the
pig weed are, no doubt, brought from
long distances by the winds, and re-
main dormant for a long time, until the
ground be put in suitable condition for
their termination and growth.
